This lovely flat was quiet and cozy with a nice décor. The kitchen was very well-equipped including plenty of spices so there was no need to buy all the little things for cooking. There is a good size clean bathroom with tub and shower. And the washer and drying rack were nice to have in order to repack the suitcase with clean clothes for the next leg of my trip. There is also a nice gas fireplace if you are staying during a cooler time of the year. The owner, Toby, was very accommodating to my early check-in since no other guest was checking out that day. He offered some information about the neighborhood and left numbers for taxi, etc. The location of the apartment is great because it is a quiet neighborhood, yet close (walking distance) to the main tourist areas of Edinburgh - Princes Street, Old Town, New Town, and right next to the village of Stockbridge. There are plenty of restaurants, pubs, cafes, shopping and grocers, all within an easy walking radius of the apartment. And several times I went out for a lovely walk along the Water of Leith walkway, choosing to wander off and get lost in the city, making new discoveries and finding my way back “home” as I pleased. I recommend this flat for a single person, a couple or two friends for a weekend or longer in order to enjoy all that Edinburgh has to offer. It would also be good for two couples on a weekend getaway.
